if_o we_o at_o the_o least_o geve_v credence_n to_o it_o whereof_o socrates_n in_o plato_n doubt_v nothing_o at_o all_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n the_o veraie_a man_n to_o be_v the_o soul_n and_o this_o

when_o it_o escape_v out_o thereof_o than_o at_o the_o last_o it_o come_v to_o liberty_n to_o live_v much_o more_o welthy_o than_o it_o do_v before_o wherefore_o than_o shall_v we_o sorrowful_o blame_v death_n sing_v that_o he_o that_o die_v do_v not_o perish_v but_o than_o he_o seem_v rather_o to_o be_v bear_v and_o we_o ought_v to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o soul_n which_o we_o can_v not_o with_o our_o eye_n decern_v as_o much_o and_o none_o otherwise_o than_o we_o be_v wont_v to_o rejoice_v and_o take_v pleasure_n in_o our_o friend_n that_o be_v absent_a and_o i_o doubt_v whether_o be_v more_o delectable_a and_o rejoice_v to_o we_o when_o they_o be_v present_a or_o else_o when_o they_o be_v absent_a for_o so_o much_o as_o the_o corporal_a live_n together_o be_v wont_a to_o minyster_n to_o we_o matter_n of_o displeasure_n and_o the_o much_o be_v in_o company_n to_o gether_o do_v somewhat_o abate_v the_o joyfulness_n of_o friendship_n if_o you_o desire_v a_o exaumple_v of_o this_o thing_n be_v not_o the_o apostle_n a_o sufficient_a argument_n the_o which_o than_o begin_v to_o take_v veraie_a fruition_n in_o christ_n and_o true_o to_o love_v he_o after_o the_o corporal_a presence_n be_v take_v from_o they_o on_o the_o same_o wise_n be_v the_o friendship_n of_o they_o that_o be_v good_a the_o which_o stedfaste_o persevere_v in_o couple_n and_o knit_v

couple_n of_o mind_n so_o that_o i_o think_v it_o a_o very_a childish_a point_n to_o think_v that_o a_o friend_n be_v clean_o lose_v and_o go_v so_o soon_o as_o he_o be_v out_o of_o sight_n you_o may_v as_o oft_o as_o you_o will_v have_v your_o son_n present_a both_o in_o your_o think_v and_o in_o your_o word_n and_o he_o on_o the_o other_o side_n remember_v you_o and_o perceive_v the_o tender_a affection_n of_o your_o mind_n you_o and_o other_o while_n in_o your_o sleep_v both_o your_o soul_n embrace_v each_o other_o and_o talk_v together_o of_o some_o secret_a thing_n what_o

short_a be_v all_o the_o whole_a time_n that_o we_o live_v here_o ¶_o hitherto_o have_v i_o use_v the_o remedy_n the_o which_o i_o may_v well_o use_v if_o i_o have_v to_o do_v with_o a_o painyme_n now_o let_v we_o brief_o consider_v what_o godliness_n and_o christen_v say_v aught_o to_o require_v of_o us._n ¶_o first_n and_o foremost_a if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o death_n be_v a_o thing_n most_o miserable_a yet_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o take_v it_o in_o good_a worth_n see_v that_o there_o be_v none_o other_o remedy_n and_o more_o over_o if_o death_n shall_v clean_o extinguish_v man_n that_o nothing_o after_o shall_v remain_v yet_o we_o shall_v therewith_o be_v content_a for_o as_o much_o as_o it_o make_v a_o end_n of_o many_o calamitee_n and_o grief_n which_o we_o suffer_v in_o this_o life_n but_o see_v that_o death_n deliver_v the_o soul_n be_v of_o etherial_a beginning_n out_o of_o the_o dungeon_n of_o the_o ponderous_a and_o heavy_a body_n in_o a_o manner_n we_o ought_v to_o rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a of_o they_o that_o be_v depart_v hence_o out_o of_o this_o wretched_a world_n and_o that_o they_o be_v return_v home_o again_o to_o that_o wealthy_a libertee_fw-mi from_o whence_o they_o come_v now_o than_o consider_v that_o death_n without_o any_o doubt_n convei_v the_o good_a devoute_a soul_n out_o of_o the_o storm_n of_o this_o troublous_a life_n unto_o the_o port_n or_o haven_n of_o life_n perdurable_a and_o that_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o hear_v of_o a_o man_n head_n shall_v perysshe_v for_o the_o body_n also_o at_o length_n shall_v be_v call_v to_o enjoy_v the_o same_o life_n everlasting_a i_o pray_v you_o whether_o ought_v we_o to_o mourn_v and_o weep_v or_o else_o to_o be_v glad_a and_o rejoice_v in_o he_o who_o death_n in_o due_a time_n take_v out_o of_o this_o most_o troublous_a sea_n of_o the_o life_n and_o carry_v he_o into_o that_o quiet_a and_o sure_a rest_v place_n of_o everlasting_a life_n go_v to_o now_o a_o little_a while_n and_o lay_v together_o the_o foul_a enormitee_n the_o painful_a labour_n and_o the_o peril_n and_o danger_n of_o this_o life_n if_o it_o may_v be_v call_v a_o life_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n reckon_v and_o cast_v what_o commoditee_n and_o pleasure_n of_o that_o other_o life_n be_v already_o prepare_v for_o the_o godly_a creature_n that_o be_v pluck_v hence_o away_o and_o than_o you_o shall_v soon_o
